such an enterprise were contemplated claim
to know nothing about the matter. A few
citizens of the West side appear sanguine

the union to confer with the Western: Union
telegraph company and ask that an office
be established in that part of the city,, has
had an interview with the officers of the

provided a majority of the business
men would sign an agreement
to patronize the office of the

NOTES.
Residents of the West side are waiting anx-
iOuSly for the city engineer to move IN the
matter of the grading of State street. This
is considered the most important improve
ment to be made on the West side during the
coming season, as on 1t depends the water
supply of the ward next winter. In order
that the pipes may be laid in season, the
trading of the street will have to be COM
peted by Sept. 1.

being forced while Gurin was at his business
and his wife out calling. A gold watch and
